Steve: Why don't you get the Chip Express plug-in module for Diesel engine upgrade? Supposed to be excellent. Wish there was one for a petrol engine.

I thought it was a plug-in and does not interfere with the ECU. Got it wrong probably.

It is a plug in module but I don't see the GTD advertised on their site.

The only downside is if you are involved in a crash and can't get the bonnet up to remove it, you might be fecked as it will be a helluva lot more obvious to the insurance than a remap. At least though it won't affect your warranty as you can just unplug it for any warranty work.

GTD HERE

There was a discussion on one of the rocco sites and they seemed to think that the ECU gradually adapted to the device and after a while made no difference.

Do what I did and buy the wife a Toyota Yaris. When you think your Golf isn't fast enough, go for a spin in hers and it'll give you a shot of reality check!  :grin:

That's true actually: my GTI seems so quick after a few days in my Transit :grin:
